One of the finest of the new wave of quality German Pinots we’ve tasted.
Hauck says:
This Pinot Noir is ruby with hints of brick red. The bouquet is fine and elegant, characterized by well-integrated flavours of wild cherries with graphite, vanilla, liquorice and pinewood.
On the palate, this Pinot Noir is a smooth yet powerful wine, medium bodied, well-balanced with a supple and delicate nature thanks to its ripe, slightly velvety tannins and a well - integrated acidity structure. Aromas of sour cherries, plum and boysenberry pair with herbal notes of thyme, pinewood and a fine touch of wood spiciness and smokiness. Long finish. Drink now or cellar up to 5 years.
Again, this compares very favorably to German Pinots several times its price.
